            good to see some one did the trip with R15.
            did you had any pain on ur wrist after the ride?

            When i did a 400 km (one stretch) on my R15 my hands where paining a lot. But now i am getting used to it. On the ride about 60 Km there where no road at all.

              Great stuff! None of your friends wanted to do a short trial ride with your bike up there? Some very good photographs indeed. Maybe you should put up a high res photograph of the frozen waterfall for members to use as a wallpaper. Just a suggestion since I liked that photograph, frozen moment in time in frozen water!
              The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

                    I have long arms, so have to bend less, well I didn't have any wrist or back pain. It was all fine, however knees seems to get jammed sometimes.
                    Moreover while riding downhill I was countering my weight by pressing the tank with my thighs instead of putting my weight on the wrist and I feel it really helped.

                    Thanks Ken Da. Yes, they did want to ride and they did ride for some 200-300 m specially at the mountain pass. Attaching the high resolution pic of the frozen spring.

                    Thanks Suhail, make it more desperate and you will do it. If not that long make a trip till Rohtang atleast and you will love it.
                    Regarding the RVM if you see the initial pics I did have them, but then they were of no use as they used to move a lot because of the terrain and due to the added weight it was making the front more heavy too so was the decision to remove them.

                              Once again nice pics.loved them all.
                              Tell me how tall are you if you dont have any problem,i guess above 6ft.do you find it ok to ride R15.
                              And why did you removed your riding shoe in every pit stop,any problem due to long time wearing it.
                              Waiting for more pics to come.

                                On the way






                                For making prayers people rotate this wheel



                                Few kms ahead of Pang





                                The dramatic nature


                                The runway


                                This made me to stop for a while and really admire the beauty




                                The tent at Pang where we stayed




                                Thats a Day 2 pic.


                                The silhouette


                                At Pang, notic the ice formed on the front fender because of the sub-zero temperature


                                Finally


                                The venue for lunch 10kms before Upsi



                                At Taglung La, a bit exhausted!




                                In the middle of nowhere


                                Absolute beauty


                                Another runway under construction


                                The army camp at Pang



                                Loved this shot taken by my friend Mayank
